5/It's like the Cho Chang thing. Chang is a hugely popular surname and god forbid anyone who dares come up with a fictitious name that that fits with that. I mean it's not as if she ever did that with loads of the English people in the series, Jesus.

6/Go and do something positive with your life instead of dragging a successful woman who has made huge, positive change to tens of millions of peoples' lives.

This ridiculous defensive rant is actually helping radicalize me against the whole idea of liberation-through-representation Like the simple fact that JK Rowling is a woman, and JK Rowling is successful, means JK Rowling's success is all women's success

The fact you are against liberation through representation is the least surprising thing I've heard in all of this.

Well yeah because it's not liberation JK Rowling has a billion dollars, whoop-de-fucking-doo I'm sure all the other women in the world benefit greatly from her giant castle with a literal electric fence around it

Oh, I beg your pardon, it's not technically a castle, it's a mere manor Doesn't have enough fortifications for soldiers to fire arrows from to be a "castle" Then again, in a world with electric fences and motion detectors, who needs them

If you ever get the number of death threats and weirdos she's had to put with down the years, you'd have extra security too. That's a world you'll never have to live in. An a manor house is LONG way from being a castle. I mean look at it - it's nice but...pic.twitter.com/MdmoAAhTjA

Jfc dude it's not only a manor house it's a *historic* manor house where Bonnie Prince Charlie once lived Come on, if your house *has a name* (that it had for hundreds of years before you lived there) what does it matter if it's a "manor" or "castle"

Dude, she's mega successful and has a nice house. Move on. That has no relation on her ability to give an educated opinion. You still haven't given me evidence of anything she's said that bigoted/insensitive etc though. I guess that is going to be long, long wait.

Whenever someone asks me to provide evidence that a well-known bigot is bigoted it's not because they haven't seen the evidence -- they, like me, obviously have access to the Internet and read the news -- it's so they can be even bigger assholes and argue the bigotry wasn't bad
